Religious America

A formative, family-friendly factoid from a recent study or survey in the news.

A new
Gallup poll shows that nearly two-thirds of Americans believe the overall
health of the United States is “heavily dependent” on its spiritual health.
About 77% say even the nation’s economy is dependent on its spiritual well-being. Gallup
also asked about religion in the workplace and found that 64% of workers say
religious expressions are either tolerated or encouraged at work. Meanwhile 82%
said they believe in God, another 13% in a “universal spirit or higher power.”
And 58% say success in life is “pretty much determined” by “religious and
spiritual forces.”
